If the previous dark streaks weren't strange enough, we find another, very similar-appearing form in the 2nd MOC image of this series. This cliff is around 348 m (1140') high. The dark shard shape seems to project from the top of the cliff. It is roughly 266 m (875') long.

Odder still, one can see rocky features of the
underlying cliff bank through the dark shard-like item. It is either
transparent, or it is a shadow.
We see a bit more structure at the top -- something like a bridge suspension cable. |
